Well, that looks really shady....
That's ultimately up to you but if you check their products on this site there are already long threads there. The only problem really is if you get hit with taxes and if you have to deal with them in English instead of Mandarin - they're slow to respond since they have to go through an entire department of interpreters, unlike other brands that have country distros or at least have an office in HK. The thing is though the whole idea of skipping a middle man isn't that different considering Schiit does the same thing, except now they have middlemen in Europe and SEAsia.
Someone mentioned Modi 2 uber/magni 2 uber, is they actually really good?
For me they are 450€, more than I feel comfortable spending....
Well you can't get anything cheaper, except something you think is shady. Just check out prices and price-to-performance ratios on stuff sold by EU- and UK-based manufacturers.
